Bethpage Black - 2009 US Open - how to get on and play the course

www.RailayProductions.com Course Info: 7,468 yards (blue tees) 76.6 rating / 144 slope

In order to play Bethpage Black as an out-of-state resident, you have to sleep in your car the night before and wake up at 4:30am to get a tee time. Due to the high demand to play the course before the 2009 US Open, I had to sleep 2 nights in the parking lot (close to 48 hours).

@philmickelsonfan12 i actually paid $100 because i was set to play on friday, but it got rained out. they let us get back in the line up and play on saturday (1st time in bethpage history) and play for $100 on saturday. so we actually slept 2 nights in the parking lot.

simply ridiculous. as much as i love golf there is no fucing way i'm sleeping in my car to play this course. no fucking way. these guys probably don't have any lives outside of golf. lol.

@stackleft haha - part of the whole experience is sleeping in the car. it's worth it.

we camped out in new jersey becuase we could get a campsite in NY.. (dumbass laws) and at the time we got there, we were 7th in line. so it wasnt even close to as packed as it was in the video. we got a 7:18 tee time and were done by noon. just an awesome day

[CBeast017]

got to the course at 3 am and chilled in/around our car to get the tickets for our tee time

@CBeast017 how did you get your tee time?

[CBeast017]

Just played there yesterday.. easily the expierience of a lifetime. stayed for 3 days, played the blue green and black. a 300$ trip well worth it. around a 5 handicap i shot 81 from the back tees. pretty much played the round of my life.. at least had the putting round of my life. it was an experience ill remember for the lest of my life. i enjoyed the video too. brings back such good memories
